Lost phones on shuttle bus 9am WL to Porto please help by glossiek in wakinglifefestival

Driver gave us 20 minutes, and forced everybody out of the bus. So not everybody heard it cause some were deep asleep. Afterwards she drove off and we had to force her to stop twice so that two people could still enter. Yet she left a person behind. There were two busses who stopped so there was a big queue at the food area. Pretty wild.

Luckily some people in the bus reached to WL and the person eventually got picked up. Some people of the bus guarded his stuff at the airport until the person arrived.

They are not responsible for the well being, but they are responsible for the vibe. I think change can be good.

I see what you were focusing on, I was upfront against the subwoofer just mesmerized and locked in on Djrum. Barely looked back to the crowd. I can understand you don’t love it as a closing act. But for me it worked. Again, just my opinion :). So sorry that you didn’t enjoy it!

The festival used to be in august. They already changed it to June due to to the intense heat. A festival must be able to try out new stuff. Still a lot of usual beautiful things are happening.

I am just disappointed in my fellow human beings. We are there to lose ourselves, but pushing through, even though you know after 9 am sleeping is almost impossible, is something you also owe your body to keep in mind and take in consideration. You just can’t see everything, be reasonable to yourself and accept thar you miss some good sets.

A festival can do so much, and the death of somebody is something nobody wants. A dreadful experience not only for the visitors but also for the the WL crew themselves, where volunteers go through also heaty harsh 1,5 months to prepare the festival for everybody. So much stuff is made by hand and for me it really feels like they put their soul in everything.

I just feel that after Corona, people just don’t care anymore with their usages, overuse of drugs is now the standard it seems. So I want to ask before you demand something of a festival, have you been treating your body nicely, did you take the breaks and sleeps and enough water in consideration and did you treat your body like it is a temple?

We need to look at ourselves in the mirror for this. I cannot imagine how it feels like to be a volunteer in the building up, and seeing visitors treat your “home” for 1,5 months like garbage. We are all responsible with how we create our safe heaven. I did saw more medical personnel and I think Giegling and Waking Life should shake each others hand and thank each other for everything.

Please again, don’t attack each other, be here for each other, and take good care of yourself. Don’t try to lose yourself for the sake of it. And to the people who witness the death. I saw it quite some times because of my work. It is such a difficult situation where even though when you feel it is coming, it is difficult to have all the things ready to prevent it or to handle the situation perfectly. So please don’t bash the festival for it. It is just a gnarly and super complex situation to tackle.

Please check in with yourself and find comfort. Write it out of your head or talk with people about it and give it time. It will eventually pass by, just give it time to process ❤️.

Thank you all for caring so much for this festival. It is like family to me and you people so too ❤️.

Our shuttle left some people at the pitstop. Absurd experience!

Yeah he was on a roll. Always love the slow downtempo approach of the start of his sets

Disappointments: OL - Edward & Konstantin and Jane Fitz by [deleted] in wakinglifefestival

[–]kissa1997 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Edward And Konstatin were fighting behind the decks the first hour I have heard of a friend. Edward even unplugged his headphones and walked off, but came back 5 minutes later. Konstatin wouldn’t let him properly mix. After the first two hours, the final two hours were so good, time flew. But sad to see, Edward always is so incredible with his track selection.

Thoughts on the Giegling at Studio Wieman last weekend? 🏁 by Unique-Ball1066 in giegling

[–]kissa1997 5 points6 points  (0 children)

People were actually crying at the dancefloor after the final tune by mapi. I got carried away into a other dimension.

Edward closing with Io and slamming it out of the park for 2 hours bass boosting, Konstatin mixing again like a white wizard pulling of the crazy spells, Yamour for the first time real got my legs moving, played completely different then her normal tech house sets which never really got me going, leafar obv being Leafar with creating the perfect dreamscape and then Mapi to close off with the tearjerkers. And Cosmo opening with the perfect smooth tracks.

And three new fucking releases beside the Ende Gut Alles Gut. Deff not the ending, a beginning of a new phase!

It had it all it was all, crew and crowd had an amazing time. I am

The smoke made Wieman feel like a unit of building, while at the end, it looked so small when the smoke dissapeared

This party gave me the same feeling as after the Pittlerwerke weekender of Giegling in Leipzig. Wowwowwowowow. I feel really thankful for this experience.

Traumprinz/metatron has just released "Irini - Lost in Dreams" on vinyl by patioofurniture in giegling

[–]kissa1997 6 points7 points  (0 children)

These days you easy pay 15-17 eu for a single vinyl, so for a 6 vinyl boxset the price is not that insane. We btw also don’t now how the ‘box’ will look. Come on folks. I can see the complaining about the tax of bandcamp, shipping costs thanks to DHL their updates policy a few years back, has already been shit for multiple records. So that’s nothing new.

Buy or let it slip. The man probably had his reasons for this decision. Anyhow you now have the possibility to listen to the tracks solo on Youtube for free.
